If you're hunting for cold potential in the model output, this thread is for you. But if you'd like to look more widely at the models, please head over to the general model discussion thread.

234 - 276 is one of the weirdest, unrealistic evolutions I think I've ever seen from a model, the high literally melts like butter in a frying pan!

Low res will do that. After 240 everything gets watered down.

And yet, even with that we get deep cold approaching the UK from the north east.

As we Europeans are wont to say: get the snow in first and the deep cold will follow...

IN about 5 days time, a ridge will be at least touching Greenland, perhaps a few hundred miles out but your talking week 4, your not going to get the detail right at that range.

The biggest/huge height anomaly is to our north east - record breaking dam? The ec46 hadn't even sniffed it.

Its sniffs it for Week 5 though - again, your not going to be that  accurate wrt positioning or timing at that range.

Really? Hardly a record breaking anomaly.

It's becoming increasingly clear that the initial attack of cold air won't have enough bite to deliver anything other than cold drizzle.....

However what comes after could be very interesting and we have a decent punt at a '2010' type event happening towards month end.

What is very certain is that the global warming phenomenon is creating a climate in UK/Ireland that could be very continental and wintry!!

I agree.  GFS 18z at T348:

Vortex marmalised and shoved in the direction of Europe and Asia, but we're it not for that weird period you mention, I was expecting it to be cleaved in half north/south.  Still great guns for UK cold, let's see what the FV3 brings...

Just looked at ec46 from 22 Oct and weeks 3 and 4 show a growing scandi high height anomaly ..........

Are you really expecting a 51 member suite mean to really suggest a 20dam +ve anomaly at week 4 or 5???

And it's 'as you were' at T+384: slack pressure gradients and widespread freezing fog. I'll take that!

Beasts available from east and north on this one! 

The crazy thing is, as @feb1991blizzardhas shown above, the ECM ensembles keep telling us this is actually on!

Good point.  There seems to be more cold air around for the time of year.  Or am I just not remembering correctly?

I would expect it to show a more defined anomaly to be honest. Anyway, BA has has pointed out that it smelt the coffee a week later so all is forgiven ec46 - for now

Regarding the ec46, I don’t put any faith in it beyond week 4 and only take weeks 3 and 4 into account if they are consistent with previous output ..... not happening at the moment ......
